- and even if you do check it, producing a well-formatted error
- string takes a lot of work.

+ IPC::System::Simple takes the hard work out of calling external commands; all
+ of your system() commands will either succeeed (run to completion and return
+ a zero exit value), or die with rich diagnostic messages.
